Don't miss this new fan video from the CBT Journal series made by our beta-testers and personally VerTun, the moderator. It's called Top Secret because it presents the new and never shown before map for Arcade battles. Although the director has revealed the maps beauty there's still many sweet surprises on it waiting for the beta-testers to discover.

New targets, new landscape and tactics, and as always stunningly beautiful graphics and breathtaking intensity of aerical combat - only in War Thunder!

Looks like a fun map. Hope they have some flatter terrain for airfields, relatively nearby.

Reminds me of a new version of the old IL2 dogfight maps with all the huge mountains and volcanoes. Looks great!

I don't understand.
What's the pleasure of playing with stupid clown markings on aircrafts.

I see the thing coming : the game will probably amazing to play, but it will be impossible to find servers with interesting settings.

That is why they need very flexible server options. They need dedicated servers that can be ran independently.

Yes Craterman, that's exactly what I've been saying all the time - unfortunately when you put micro transactions and levelling at the core of the game in a free to play business model, dedicated servers aren't possible (since you need to control experience gain etc), so I wouldn't hold my breath on that.

I probably won't even touch the arcade servers. I'll stick with the "hardcore" ones that are more realism based. Cockpit locked, no external views, certain "boosts" off.
